Hi All,1) How can I tell if my Fergie is a TE-20 or a TEa-20? I know from searching these forums the "a" designates a "standard" engine made in England as opposed to a Continental engine (is that right?) but how do I tell from looking at it which it is? It"s a petrol engine grey model if that helps. I"m Down Under. 2) Can I run it (either the TE-20 or the TEa-20) on normal unleaded petrol? I have been using "LRP" which is Lead Replacement Petrol which in Oz has a RON (octane) rating of 96. Unleaded in Oz varies from 91 to 93. I am scared to try it for fear of damage. Does anyone know whether the compression and valve seats of the TE20/TEa20 are OK for 91 RON? If not, can anyone recommend a fuel additive for Unleaded that will be OK for Fergie? (They are phasing out LRP now.) 3) When searching these forums I don"t seem to be able to find info I am sure must exist here - for example the questions I asked. I have tried using [TEA-20 + petrol] & [TEA-20 + gas] & [TEA-20 + fuel] as well as TEA20 & TEA 20 & TEa20 instead of TEA-20 in the above search combinations without success. I also tried without the "+" but it seemed to want phrases then. Is there a FAQ sticky that exlains the search mechanism? (I couldn"t find that either). I just don"t want to waste your valuable time repeating answers to questions asked already. By the way, a while ago you guys gave me some good advice for replacing wheel studs - many thanks - my Fergie is operational again, much safer this time using 8 studs instead of 3! Mongrel of a job without the right tools eg stud remover. Thanks in advance for your help again. Dave Soede aka Apprentice_GM
